The billionaires fund this crap because they get a greater return on their investment than they would trying to convince the viewers to buy their stupid shit.

He got into the college he got into thanks to a recommendation letter from Hunter Biden that Tuckums solicited.

JFC what did I just read. Wonk I don't know how you do it. You listen or read about these rwnjs that have power and keep your sanity. WHAT IS YOUR SECRET? I read one article and I'm ready to shit bricks and throw them.

Angertainment. They're addicted to it. The outrage releases dopamines and they need to come back for moe. I wish this was a joke but it's scientific reality.

Exactly. I had no idea she'd spoken about this but pretty much every other menopausal woman I'm friends with mentions menopause at some point. Like, we're the sisterhood of menopausal nightmare hellcats, and we have to commiserate and support each other and also let the next batch of initiates know they'll get through it with a sense of humor.

Tucker, it isn't 2013 anymore, and (I'm guessing) that 99% of those WW II vets that you are trying scare have already gone to the Big USO In The Sky. You might want to get some more up to date material so you and your show won't be cancel cultured like a common Newsmax.

So talking about menopause - a normal event in the life of anyone with a uterus who lives long enough - is being a "crazed narcissist, but talking about tanning testicles with UV light - is not?

I don't think he gives a flying eff about merit. He's worried about people getting into college who are darker than a brown paper bag - for any reason or no reason. How can you keep people in an underclass if they have a degree?

I'm pretty sure that by "merit" A trust fund baby, "alleged American" and propagandist called Tucker Carlson means "white."

Now, Harris is a woman who cannot even consistently pronounce her own first name...

It can be fascinating, in the way that car crash photos are fascinating, to speculate on how some of these ridiculous ideas get formed in the brains of this man and those like him.

It's the Tucker Carlson syllogism:

I can't pronounce her name.

I'm smarter than she is.

Therefore she can't pronounce her name either.

Unless it's something even more ridiculous. Feel free to speculate, or not.

Undervalued observation.

Now, why is Michelle Obama telling you about her menopausal thighs on a TV show? Possibly because she's a crazed narcissist who thinks her own thighs are interesting to you. And that's, of course, true.

Personally, I'm not interested in Michelle Obama's thighs, or her journey with menopause. But I'm also not interested in Kim Kardashian's butt or Ryan Gosling's abs and people talk about them all the time and I've not heard TC whining about that. Why don't we hear Tucker Carlson decrying articles about how much muscle male action stars put on for their latest role, huh??

It's almost as if people have different interests, and pick and choose their media consumption based on what those interests are. Sometimes those interests aren't even racist and misogynistic, which is what Tucker finds confusing.
